Best bank to open in Jizan?

hi,

im new here in saudi arabia and currently in jizan. Any suggestion on which bank best to open an account? thanks!

Saudi British Bank or Riyadh Bank

Could you please let me know something on Jizan city if its safe.

I will be working as Gynaecologist in King fahad central hospital.

Any input is highly appreciated.

If coming to Jizan, I would recommend anything with some Western accountablilty. I wouldnt recommend Riyadh Bank. Slow Saudi service which is typical. SABB whihc is half British owned would be my choice.

for Filipinos like me, NCB is very recommendable due to its online 'Quickpay' features. No hassle in remitting money back home. Very convenient to use and charges is affordable.
